Saturday Morning, 1/31, Bracket Prediction

In two straight weekends Yale defeats Cornell and Princeton, and with everything else going on, moves all the way to 11 in the PWR.  Keith Allain and the boys in New Haven, keep it going.  Wouldn’t Wayne Dean love to be chairman of the committee right about now.
